Changing the way I shave?

Currently I use a Gillette razor and I use a fragrance-free shaving foam. I noticed recently that I have had a little white bump under my chin which has been there a little while ( I am guessing a month ). I am thinking that it could be a few things. I always wet my face, and gently massage in the shaving foam, I then shave gently and then wash my face with water and a fragrance-free bar of soap ( that only I use, and I only use it on my face ). I then gently dab down my face and moisturise with a Cetaphil fragrance-free moisturiser. I do not think I change my razor head as often as I should, I will try to do that more frequently. But should I be washing my face with soap first, to make it warm and soft, and then applying the foam and shaving, followed by moisturising?

I have also considered switching to an electric razor, but I have heard that it can irritate your skin because of the heat, and also that it takes a little while for you skin to get used to the razor.
